J. Michael Waller describes the problems that America is facing as a result of the subterfuge of our brains organizations in Big Intel: How the CIA and FBI Wwent from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Monsters. Allen is the president of Georgetown Research, a secret intelligence and political risk consulting firm, and the Center for Security Policy’s top analyst for strategy. He holds a Ph. D. in International Security Affairs from Boston University. Big Intel itself builds on Waller’s earlier Key Dynasty: The KGB in Russia Today. That text predicted today’s gang government in Russia, run by former KGB soldiers.
Waller’s study is deeply rooted in his own life experience. Right out of a John la Carré fiction, he has had some pretty “up close and personal” encounters with informants and spycraft, starting with an early enrollment by Reagan CIA Director William Casey, who conducted research in Latin America. Eventually, Waller’s travels and reports to the Soviet Union led to a confrontation with infamous FBI stooge Bob Hanssen, which in turn led to an uncomfortable conversation with FBI Director Louis Freeh. Most of this intriguing historical info is told in Big Intel‘s second 30 pages, so recently establishing the writer’s bona fides.
The majority of Big Intel is made up of two parallel, and often linked, histories. The one is a story of spies, spying, and subversion, the evolution of violent Socialist- Communism into social Marxism as present in modern woke culture. The CIA and FBI, who had previously fought the blatant brutality of Marxist-Leninism, have since been undermined by cultural Marxism under the guise of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” and “diversity, collateral, and addition” trope.
Waller begins with the actions of the FBI, cheered on by John Brennan’s CIA, in the groundless Trump campaign research. We see Peter Strzok, the FBI director who launched the” Crossfire Hurricane” investigation into the Trump campaign, first opening the case before going to London to conduct the investigation, usurping the position of a field agent. Next came Andy McCabe, the former FBI deputy chairman, who was acting director when James Comey was fired and set up an investigation into Trump for obstruction of justice. Other than the fire itself, McCabe offered no antecedent for this exploratory program. Former FBI Director James Comey was the final atrocity. The abuse of power by Comey, McCabe, Strzok, and another has undermined public confidence in the FBI.
These crimes, according to Waller, are much riskier than the mere meddling with political elections by these organizations. He believes that these powerful organizations are the catalyst for the fundamental change of our nation and culture. His Major Intel answers the question, how did this happen? Before there was an FBI or CIA, he transports us to Moscow, which was more than a decade before.
Back in Time
Waller follows the “red thread,” an unbroken series of philosophical development from the earliest Communists to the present-day woke warriors, using a word from columnist Diana West. Every step of this evolution is covered up in terrible detail by Walsh. His extensive educational background in studying intelligence is apparent around.
The Frankfurt School, a group of Communist scholars whose suggestions Moscow hoped would devastate Weimar Germany from within, was born out of the efforts of the first Soviets to spread Communist ideology throughout Europe. Nevertheless, the Nazis beat them to the punch. However, due to their relocation to the United States, this was an unforeseen boost for the Frankfurt School. Every step of the evolution of traditional Marxism into contemporary Cultural Marxism, with its expression of critical concept and woke passions, is closely followed and documented by Waller.
Along the way, we get a refresher training on the Comintern and its previously- growing supporting agencies like the Chekists, the NKVD, the KGB, and tomorrow’s FSB and SVR. Waller manages to make this all natural. As he also does with the different people along the “red yarn” from Bolsheviks like Feliks Dzerzhinsky, to Herbert Marcuse, and Reinhold Niebuhr, who brought the Frankfurt School’s Paul Tillich to America.
Our two significant institutions’ horizontal histories are frequently intertwined in close detail, frequently blending with the accounts of their hard opponents. Waller gives them their due, covering the good, the bad, and the dirty of both the CIA and FBI. William J. Hoover and J. Edgar Hoover are both. ” Wild Bill” Donovan, considered here as the founding father of the FBI and CIA both, are given a healthy care.
Donovan, a beautiful figure, created and ran the CIA’s father, the OSS. Many of his OSS soldiers may rise to leadership positions within the CIA. Despite the efforts of today’s FBI to wipe his memory, Walter reminds us that the story and fame of today’s FBI were built on a half-century of true accomplishments and remarkable open relations by J. Edgar Hoover.
Intel Agencies Today
Recent FBI and CIA directors have fallen under the influence of critical theory, the most recent manifestation of Cultural Marxism. A number of executive orders from Presidents Obama and Biden directing “diversity, equity, and inclusion” have pushed and pulled them in this direction. John Brennan, the director of the CIA, and James Clapper, the director of national intelligence, are both willing to participate in this investigation and are being looked into in Big Intel. However, James Comey deserves and deserves more in-depth analysis.
Comey’s belief system is based on the philosophy of Reinhold Niebuhr. Although not a communist, Niebuhr was definitely a fellow traveler, part of the “red thread”. Waller tells us that Comey, taking from Niebuhr, saw a moral obligation to dispense with ethics. According to Comey,” The Christian in politics must be willing to transgress any purely Christian ethic.” He must have a willingness to commit a sin in the name of justice.
As FBI director, Comey substituted his own moral interpretation over established norms and precedents. His virtual declination of prosecution in the Clinton email matter, usurping a prosecutor’s role, is a case in point. The distinct , previous guardrails of the FBI — e. g., caution , in starting political investigations and briefing , Congress on sensitive investigations — were ignored , by Comey. He never briefed the Gang of Eight, during their quarterly meetings, about the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. When asked why Congress had never been informed, he responded that it was too” sensitive,” once more putting his own moral standards on top of the table.
Critical theory, the ideology that underpins the fundamental mission of today’s FBI and CIA, calls for a constant search for enemies among our fellow citizens and our constitutional institutions. Today’s FBI plans to erase Hoover’s name from its new headquarters building, while still profiting from the pedestal upon which he placed the Bureau. Meanwhile, the CIA spreads the falsehood that Wild Bill Donovan was all about “diversity, equity, and inclusion”.
Big Intel is a brilliant analysis of a pressing issue facing our nation, according to J. Michael Waller’s excellent book.
